It was clearly very exciting. And I would say hello!Jim Belshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075614280789984767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-65793264347722183702010-10-05T23:31:19.967+11:002010-10-05T23:31:19.967+11:00Anonymous, yes what a match! If proof was needed ...Anonymous, yes what a match! If proof was needed that test matches are not passe, this was it. Ponting rightly said that though he has played 150 test matches, this was the best experience he had. Till that last leg bye, it was cricket at its best with ups and downs at regular intervals. I lost a packet betting yesterday for a draw. <br /><br />Jim, if you ever see me anywhere, do not hesitate to come and say hello. That is, if I haven't already spied you and done so!rummuserhttp://www.rummuser.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-5903559097972744182010-10-05T20:48:27.219+11:002010-10-05T20:48:27.219+11:00May it long be so, KVD, and high from Rhodes.May it long be so, KVD, and high from Rhodes.Jim Belshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075614280789984767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24338064.post-59892081573420625122010-10-05T19:21:22.710+11:002010-10-05T19:21:22.710+11:00Hi Jim
I haven't yet read your referred post,...Hi Jim<br /><br />I haven't yet read your referred post, but will do so because I have enjoyed revisiting your earlier ones.<br /><br />But I just wanted to record for posterity the wonderful test match just now (this minute) decided in India's favour. Not just a matter of nearly down to the last ball; more so the skill and good spirit on display.<br /><br />Well, more power to India for the win, and long may it be thus, between our countries.<br /><br />Safe travels<br />kvdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
